  • Daylight Saving Time/Standard Time Legislative Update 2021
    Stickies 3/9/21, 10:02 AM March 9, 2021 Dear members of the Senate Political Subdivisions committee, Below are two recent blog posts from my blog: sco.tt/time. That is the source of so much of the information that Legislators have been relying on for more than six years now. In short, the bill before you, HB1371, is excellent. It’s in line with other bills around the country, and especially with your neighboring states. I will be happy to answer any questions that you might have. Respectfully submitted, Scott Yates Denver, Colorado Daylight Saving Time/Standard Time Legislative Update 2021 Last year at this time I had just finished testifying in Atlanta, and I had high hopes that we’d get to 20 states that had passed some kind of bill to #LockTheClock in 2020. Well, as we know, 2020 through us all for a loop. A few states that move really fast, like Wyoming and Louisiana, got a bill Page 1 of 17 Stickies 3/9/21, 10:02 AM done before everything went to crap, but we ended up with only 15 states that have taken action. This year is poised to blast through the progress from last year. The bills I’ve seen, testified on, and talked to sponsors about are absolutely blazing through. My last trip before Covid was to Atlanta in support of Wes Cantrell One big thing that’s different this year is that I’m able to be many more places at the same time, through the magic of zoom.

  • Summary As Reported from Committee
    Legislative Analysis DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME Phone: (517) 373-8080 http://www.house.mi.gov/hfa House Bill 4052 (H-1) as reported from committee Analysis available at Sponsor: Rep. Michele Hoitenga http://www.legislature.mi.gov Committee: Commerce and Tourism Complete to 4-21-21 SUMMARY: House Bill 4052 would create a new act to establish the official time that would be followed by this state in the event of certain federal actions regarding daylight saving time (DST). Specifically, under the bill, if Congress eliminated DST, the official time followed by the state and its political subdivisions would be year-round standard time as otherwise provided by federal law. However, if Congress authorized states to observe DST year-round, the official time followed by the state and its political subdivisions would be year-round DST—but only if Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin also all observed DST year-round. The above provisions, in either case, would apply both to the part of the state that is in the Eastern Time Zone and the part that is in the Central Time Zone. The bill would take effect 90 days after its enactment. BACKGROUND: Time Zones Four counties in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula—Gogebic, Iron, Dickinson, and Menominee— share their southern border with Wisconsin and observe Central Time. The rest of Michigan is on Eastern Time. The U.S. Secretary of Transportation can issue regulations modifying the boundaries between time zones in the United States to move an area from one time zone to another. The procedure used by the U.S.

  • Time Changes – November 6, 2017
    Problem of the Week Archive Time Changes – November 6, 2017 Problems & Solutions Due to timekeeping confusion on the American railroads in the mid-19th century, a system of standard time zones was proposed. In 1918 the Standard Zone Time and Daylight Saving Time were established in the Standard Time Act. Later, the Uniform Time Act of 1966 was passed promoting the adoption of uniform time within the standard time zones. The map below shows six of the U.S. time zones. From east to west, the time zones are Eastern Standard Time (EST), Central Standard Time (CST), Mountain Standard Time (MST), Pacific Standard Time (PST), Alaskan Standard Time (AKST) and Hawaii-Aleutian Standard Time (HST). Notice that in some cases a state can be in multiple time zones. Over the course of Luther’s summer break, he visited four of the six time zones shown. What is the minimum number of states that Luther could have visited? Suppose Luther visited 2 states that each “straddle” two time zones. For example, he could have visited Crowley and Portland, which are both located in Oregon, but one city is located in the Pacific time zone and the other is located in the Mountain time zone. Then if he visited Nashville and Knoxville, both cities in Tennessee, he would have visited the Central time zone and Eastern time zone. Therefore, the minimum number of states Luther could have visited is 2 states. When Daylight Saving Time is not being observed, the time difference between neighboring time zones is −1 hour from east to west.

  • TIME ZONE Louisiana Is Located in the Central Standard Time (CST) Zone
    TIME ZONE Louisiana is located in the Central Standard Time (CST) Zone. Central is two hours ahead of the Pacific time zone (California), and one hour behind the Eastern time zone (New York). WEATHER PATTERNS Louisiana’s subtropical weather is as diverse as its people. Spring and fall are simply paradise and winters here can range from brisk to downright balmy. Bring shorts in the summer (June through August), a coat for the cooler months (November through February) and a sturdy umbrella—just in case. Snow rarely falls in the South Louisiana, with only light snowfall typically recorded in the northern regions.

  • Summary As Introduced (2/12/2021)
    Legislative Analysis LEGISLATIVE INTENT ON DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME Phone: (517) 373-8080 http://www.house.mi.gov/hfa House Bill 4052 as introduced Analysis available at Sponsor: Rep. Michele Hoitenga http://www.legislature.mi.gov Committee: Commerce and Tourism Complete to 2-12-21 SUMMARY: House Bill 4052 would create a new act to express legislative intent regarding daylight saving time (DST). Specifically, the bill would provide that, if the United States Congress authorized states to observe DST year-round, the intent of the legislature would be for DST to be the year-round standard time of Michigan and all of its political subdivisions, including both the part of Michigan that is in the Eastern Time Zone and the part that is in the Central Time Zone. It would further be the intent of the legislature for this time change to take effect only if Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin also observed DST year-round. The bill would take effect 90 days after its enactment. BACKGROUND: Time Zones Four counties in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula—Gogebic, Iron, Dickinson, and Menominee— share their southern border with Wisconsin and observe Central Time. The rest of Michigan is on Eastern Time. The U.S. Secretary of Transportation can issue regulations modifying the boundaries between time zones in the United States to move an area from one time zone to another. The procedure used by the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) to address time zone issues starts with a request from the highest elected official in an area submitting a petition requesting a change and providing data to support the change.

  • C:\PWO Projects\Clients\Time Zone Related\St. Joseph County Time
    A REPORT ON THE UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF TRANSPORTATION’S RESPONSE TO SAINT JOSEPH COUNTY, INDIANA’S 2005 TIME ZONE PETITION ADVISORY COMMITTEE ON THE TIME ZONE 3 November 2010 A. INTRODUCTION The Advisory Committee on the Time Zone for St. Joseph County has been asked to consider possible courses of action open to prospective proponents of Central Time for the region surrounding and including St. Joseph County, Indiana. As part of our response we have prepared this report as a primer on time law, Congressional time policy, and the methodology employed by the Department of Transportation (DOT or Department) in time line location proceedings. From our review of time zone boundary decisions and the history of time keeping in the United States we have concluded that the Department initially employed an ad hoc approach to petitions for changes in time zones originating from Indiana in 2005 and persisted in this ad hoc approach with respect to St. Joseph and Marshall counties through the conclusion of the 2005 process. This approach was inconsistent with the seeming focus of the DOT “Procedure for Moving an Area from one Time Zone to Another” (the “Procedure”).1 The inconsistencies emphasized procedure over substance and likely flowed from Indiana’s reputation for time zone controversy and from St. Joseph County’s pivotal political and geographic position. The DOT may be tempted to repeat this approach should a renewed petition originate from St. Joseph County. We also concluded that the Procedure is legally problematic. The bases for, and ramifications of, our conclusions are explored in depth in this report.
